That's a super cheap option, but I think you'll end up wanting more channels (immediately,or down the road). I always recommend the Taranis for a great radio, at a very low price, considering the features. It typically runs about $200 USD for the radio, receiver and a carry case. Great bang...

Have you done the calibration in the naza assistant to make sure that the FC is seeing the correct modes as well as the fail safe based on your switch position? I believe the yellow lights typically mean there is a connection issue between the tx and the FC. I tried to help another member...

Welcome aboard! I think you'll find a wealth of knowledge around here - and maybe even some local folks from the forum that are near(ish) your area. Enjoy the forum and fly safe!

If they are the encoder motors - there was a link to them over at aerial pixel pros. You definitely need a different firmware thank the standard alexmos (which I think you pay for - or at least you did).

Of course! That's what we're here for :) It's not a tough program. And using the computer to change settings is SO much easier! Just make sure you "write to" the radio when you've made changes. Check it on the radio after you dismount it from the computer.

Yes. I am still using the older version Taranis - so the program is different. The old one is called Companion9X

Nice work! I think the simplest way is to hook the radio to the computer and do you assignments in there. You can assign both sticks and switches/pots to whatever channels you wish. If you have not assigned the switches - they will not be relaying any info. It's possible to do it in the radio...

You need to make sure you assign the channels within the radio. I find it easier to do it in the computer program. I'm not sure how the naze needs to be setup (AETR etc), but you will need to map the channels correct for how the Naze wants to see them.

I think most people 3D print a mount for these types of FCs. Easy enough of you have the printer. Good luck and show us what you come up with.

Sounds good. Looking forward to seeing how you pull all this together. On a side note: just saw this test between the Sony and its predecessor. https://www.cinema5d.com/ultimate-sony-a7s-ii-vs-a7s-test-difference/

Ah. Got it. So how will the FrSky Rx speak with the "stick" on the multirotor? You're right to question whether that many signals in the similar band would cause you grief. You may be fine - but obviously ground tests will let you know that before you get in too deep.

If I understand correctly, any of the connection/control between your ground station (as simple or as complicated as it may be) and the multirotor is wifi, you are going to have limited range. Perhaps that will be sufficient if you choose to control the camera settings while the ship is close...

If your range is 1cm, then you should be good :). I saw mention of 1 mile for your FPV, which is why I mentioned the range issue. There are infrared controllers that can be hooked to your receiver that can start/stop video and trigger stills. But they will not offer more control (ISO, etc).

Seems like you've set a good and reasonable goal for yourself. Sounds like the 680Pro will be for practice - but perhaps could double as a platform for a smaller camera rig down the line. Seems like keeping it cheaper (E600) would be the way to go if you know you're going to be investing in a...

If you grab an adjustable BUCK converter you can dial in the voltage that suits the gimbal best. Cheap and easy. Good to have a few in the toolbox for situations like this.

Don't be afraid to ask - that's how you learn, and there are plenty of folks around here willing to share their experiences.

It was a good call to check with the supplier - amazing when they can't give you definitive answers on products they sell. Most gimbals do prefer a 12v power source.

@Jay_Z Have you been able to transmit HDMI output to a TV or monitor directly? I would suggest getting that going - then move to the settings needed to get the downlink functional. @blackmountainflyr Video is not going to pass through any telemetry of the FrSky. It's a really handy To have...

I do believe the AMA gaps were Internet/YouTube related. Because when I noticed it on the computer in the office - the Program screen in the studio showed no issues. I had stuck my head in a couple times during that time and Bruce also indicated the program feed was fine.

AMA in the house!!!!
